No offense, but if many of you are so by a company's "product", why do you keep using it? If you're not happy with the way in which said company does business or their practices their business, then don't use their services or product. It's that simple. If you make money off of your community marketing such an allegedly crappy product, then you should look at other business alternatives. It's that simple. Things break due to possibly billions of different configurations of hardware, software and you can't expect software programmers to be perfect.
This is my opinion. If I get what I feel is crappy service (a restaurant for example), I don't return. Ok, maybe it was a bad day. I give it another shot. If I have to complain about the same things, they don't get my business. If I buy a product and it sucks, I stop buying that product. Also, I've stopped selling products that cause me grief as well. This is such a simple concept, but many of you come from the generation of "you owe it to me". Stop filling the boards up with nonsense. I'm tired of filtering through the complaints to find solutions. Either produce productive statements or don't say anything at all. The squeaky wheel does not get the grease, it gets ignored and set aside. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Todd Pettit Sent: Friday, August 17, 2012 7:56 PM To: Half-Life dedicated Win32 server mailing list Subject: Re: [hlds] [hlds_linux] Full servers, but not? Ok, well obviously though that was too late since Friday night here we are on the third update and I am having to explain to my community that Valve doesn't believe in testing first. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kush Mahajani" <[email protected]> To: "Half-Life dedicated Win32 server mailing list" <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, August 17, 2012 10:45:18 PM Subject: Re: [hlds] [hlds_linux] Full servers, but not?
